Gallagher Aviation is proud to announce that we now carry the Marsh Brothers AeroTough® Grease Free (GF) Fuel Cap Washers for your flush mounted Shaw 416, 516, 431, and 531 type fuel caps (they work on all models). As our fuel caps age, the metal washer on our fuel caps wear out the plunger by rounding it down, which prevents it to close flush like they were originally designed to do. With the M&A of Shaw Aerospace by Parker Hannifin support for these fuel caps has generally vanished unless you can find new old stock fuel caps or are willing to pay a hefty fee for a few cap to be manufactured.

The Marsh Brothers blue washer is an excellent solution to fixing these problems. Prior to stocking this product, I got a taste of them for N11GG and I am impressed! A couple of my Shaw 416 fuel cap plungers were stiff and would also not stay flush. Problem solved. These washers help make opening and closing much easier and will ensure your fuel cap remains safe and functional. They are made from a durable thermoplastic polymer that has inherent self-lubricating properties. They rejuvenate your Shaw fuel cap with smooth operation of the locking tab/plunger, provide a consistent open/close force, and have a long wear life. These are FAA approved.

Add in my blue fluorosilicone fuel cap kits for your fuel caps and you will be sitting pretty well!

Feedback from an Aerostar owner.

"I have these on the Aerostar. They seem expensive for washers, but it's hard to convey how much difference they make.

The caps went from difficult to use, even when recently lubricated, to buttery smooth.

One of the biggest "bang for the buck and effort" things you can do for your airplane."
